Chapter 793 What is your position?
There were chattering outside the Yikun Palace, crowded with people, and a mess.
"Everyone, calm down!"
Zhang Jing scolded as soon as he came out.
People here don’t know that he supported Zhu Yili to become the emperor, and still regarded him as the number one celebrity around Emperor Wanli.
So of course his words have prestige.
In addition, the prime minister Shen Shixing has also come out.
Everyone immediately calmed down.
"Empress Dowager Cisheng has an order that everyone will retreat and will not stay in Yikun Palace."
As soon as Zhang Jing said this, the originally quiet crowd immediately seemed to be in a panic and asked:
"Long live the Lord?"
"Is Prince Lu really hiding in Yikun Palace?"
"Has Master Long Sui really been held hostage by Prince Lu? Prince Lu wants to seize the throne and become the emperor?"
"The Empress said that Long Sui was in danger. What is the situation now? Why didn't the Empress Dowager and Long Sui come out?"
“…”
"Quiet, everyone, please listen to me." Zhang Jing raised his hand and said, "The Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces is negotiating and handling it in Yikun Palace. We just need to wait for the news. Don't you believe in the wise decision of the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces?"
It was noisy again.
“We just want to know what’s going on inside.”
"Yes, we just want to know what happened inside. Is it safe now?"
"Long lively can't leave Yikun Palace today? Please inform Zhang Da Gong, otherwise we won't leave."
“…”
Zhang Jing shouted: "Do you dare not listen to the will of Empress Dowager Cisheng?"
Then he said, "I will repeat that Empress Dowager Cisheng has an order. You will go back to your place where you should go and wait for the news. You will give you a perfect explanation. With two Empress Dowagers inside, they will naturally handle it, otherwise I and the Prime Minister Mr. Shen will not come out."
Finally no one yelled.
Although they could also hear something from Zhang Jing's words, Zhang Jing had been avoiding whether Zhu Yili really held Emperor Wanli hostage.
But Shen Shixing did stand beside Zhang Jing, and his expression seemed calm.
The cabinet chief and the chief supervisor of the Oui have both come out, so what else do they have to say?
At this time, I can only shut up.
Zhang Jing then said, "The Empress Dowager Cisheng has an order. Don't criticize yourself after you go back, so as not to cause unnecessary panic. If anyone dares to talk nonsense, you are the only one who asks."
Everyone left slowly, but they all had many questions in their hearts.
Seeing everyone gradually leaving Yikun Palace, Zhang Jing and Shen Shixing both breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Shin, wait."
Shen Shixing was anxious to go back to the cabinet when he heard Zhang Jing shouting at him and stopped again.
"Mr. Shin, can you speak in two steps?"
"Um."
Shen Shixing nodded slightly, but in fact, there was only one more Zhou Zuo around them.
Zhou Zuo avoided it tactfully, but he did not leave first because he saw through the fake Emperor Wanli and witnessed what happened in Yikun Palace with his own eyes. In addition, given Zhang Jing's clear position, he felt that it was safer under Zhang Jing's nose at this moment, otherwise there would be suspicion of leaking the secret.
"I wonder what Mr. Shen's position is?" Zhang Jing asked directly without turning around.
"What is Eunuch Zhang's position?"
"Is it just to support Master Long Sui to continue to be the emperor, or to support Prince Lu to replace him?"
"Have you forgotten Eunuch Zhang?" Shen Shixing said slowly, "Empress Dowager Cisheng just said that he didn't need to make a decision in court, and the implication was that we ministers didn't need to make decisions."
"With that being said, Mr. Shen must have seen that the two empress dowagers are in great difficulty, so we still need to push them."
Shen Shixing shook his head and said disapprovingly: "What the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces is not the decision, but the only thing that is difficult for him is how to comfort him."
"What decision will Mr. Shen thinks the Empress Dowagers of the Two Palaces make?"
Although Zhang Jing asked seriously.
But Shen Shixing smiled but said nothing. Because in his eyes, Zhang Jing asked this question with knowledge. He saw that the two empress dowagers obviously tended toward Zhu Yili, and it was impossible that Zhang Jing could not see it! If he couldn't see it, how could he firmly support Zhu Yili?
"I think it's better for Mr. Shen to make a clear statement at this time." Zhang Jing murmured again.
"What's the use of our statement? The final decision is still in the hands of the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces."
Emperor Wanli understood this, so he did not support the court's discussion, for fear that the ministers in the court would all see Empress Dowager Li's eyes at that time.
"But Mr. Shen was silent at this time, and it didn't seem appropriate to say a word to help Prince Lu, right? I think Prince Lu supported you at the time, and I don't know how much I have paid for you in secret."
Shen Shixing was afraid that Zhang Jing would have misunderstandings, so he had to explain in a secret manner: "Eunuch Zhang, at this time, you and I will ensure the stability inside and outside the court, which is the greatest help to Prince Lu. Not only Prince Lu, but also the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces, they are afraid of chaos, and they are afraid that there will be no chaos, and the only ones who are afraid of chaos will be the only emperor and the queen."
The time of Shen is in the end.
Although he still did not clearly stand on the sidelines and did not express his support for whom he supported just now, Zhang Jing felt that he had understood and knew the real tendency in Shen Shixing's heart. Thinking that the reason why Shen Shixing's attitude was unclear was due to his personality.
Shen Shixing is originally this kind of personality.
After thinking through this section, Zhang Jing did not continue and took Zhou Zuo towards the direction of Qianqing Palace.
Shen Shixing returned to the cabinet.
On the way back to Qianqing Palace, Zhou Zuo was unable to calm down for a long time.
Zhou Zuo asked in a sudden question: "Do you know what to do next?"
Zhou Zuo shook his head, looking scared.
"Then who do you support to be the emperor?" Zhang Jing asked bluntly again.
Zhou Zuo still shook his head, he didn't dare to think about it.
Zhang Jing said: "But this problem needs to be faced after all, and you can't escape it."
Zhou Zuo nodded, but thought to himself that the two empress dowagers will be done if they decide, and they don’t seem to have much to do with him. After all, what he needs to face is the two empress dowagers, not him. All he needs is waiting for news, and anyone who becomes the emperor can do it.
As for making a clear statement like Zhang Jing, he did not dare, and he felt it was unnecessary. He was just a master of the Qianqing Palace. He still thought it was forgot about who became the emperor. At this time, he seemed to be safer to learn Shen Shixing.
...
In the Qianqing Palace.
Nian Yonghuan was still sitting on the collapse and trembling, feeling that the end of the world was about to come.
Seeing that Zhang Jing finally returned, he quickly jumped down from the collapse and asked:
"Eunuch Zhang, is it done?"
"It's almost done." Zhang Jing said this again.
"How fast is it going to be soon?" Nian Yonghuan asked impatiently. He was really unable to stand it.
